I've been having this pain in my chest, specifically on the middle left side, and it's been happening just after I wake up. It only lasts for 1 or 2 minutes, but it comes with an elevated heartbeat, around 90 beats per minute. Should I be worried about this?

I've been trying to get my hands on the medicine Cetanil T 20 that was prescribed to me, but I've had no luck because of the lockdown. I'm wondering if it's alright to take Telmikind 40, which is Telmisartan 40 mg, and Cilacar 20, which is Cilnidipine 20 mg, instead. Is this a safe alternative? Should I be careful about anything when taking these meds?
